Hi all,

A friend of mine bought a used Eurovan last year and hasn't been using
his Vanagon but never actually tried to sell it yet (for a variety of
personal reasons).  Having said that he doesn't need it and if I made an
offer I think he'd sell it to me.

He describes it as:
91 Carat (table, rear-facing seats, Wolfsburg goodies) with a Pioneer
AM/FM/cassette and 6-CD player, two new tires, two in only fair shape.
needs a AC recharge
245k mi with last 75k on a factory rebuilt engine.

It looks nice...no need for body or paint work.  I'm concerned the
engine may need an overhaul soon and I'm unsure if I want another
Vanagon given gas prices....maybe I should go for a small station wagon.

So what do you think the above is worth?

I've detailed my current '80 air cooled woes but basically I have '80
Vanagon L which I put 3 CV joints in, a starter several FI components
and some other parts including an eye link, bumper guards, windshield.
While it runs  and seems okay at the moment it needs real effort in
paint and a couple significant dents fixed.  While there is some heat
from the heater boxes in February it isn't noticeable.  The air
compressor was removed long ago I'm guessing for power reasons.
So it's a beater and I doubt I'd get what I have in it but it might make
someone a work truck for a while.

I'm thinking I might get $1000 out of mine.

Thanks for the opinions...
